Terminator - uncaught exception

[Stephen Corwin]

Hi--

I'm on Windows 7 Enterprise.  I did a brand-new install of Cygwin and the packages you recommend on your "Setting up Cygwin" page (not the dev pkgs) and then used the .msi file to install Terminator.

I first got a dialog from Terminator that said that it could not create /home/Administrator/.terminator.  I made /home/Administrator, and when I started Terminator again I got the message below in a dialog.  I'd be happy to send you terminator-5392.log, but it's a zero-byte file.

And thanks for making Terminator; it's terrific.  (I installed it on Linux.)

Uncaught exception
---------------------------
An error occurred in Terminator:

Exception RuntimeError: Java failed with #<Process::Status: pid 6564 exit 1>

Please send us the contents of the application log, from /home/Administrator/.terminator/logs/terminator-5392.log.

An idea of what you were doing when Java exited might be useful.

Command line was:

:)

If Java crashed, then there's probably an "hs err pid" file knocking around.  The contents of that might be interesting.  I don't hold out much hope though.  I think we've pretty much given up on Windows.  Post 1.7.7 (iirc) Cygwin doesn't seem to load Java as a DLL reliably on many modern Windows installations.
